            JD Vance has the face of a guy that NEEDS to grow a beard. He grew that shit out because he knew it'd help him look a little butch and manly. Honestly I wasn't sure if he could grow facial hair because he looks like a newsie. He has newsie face. A hotel doorman should be shooing him away.

                Long Covid patients gaslit by GPs, Surrey study finds
                The University of Surrey study says patients faced "gatekeeping" of medical treatment from doctors.
            
        
    
    
            "We found that people with long Covid are often led to fend for themselves in a system that isn't adequately informed about their condition and doesn't offer them appropriate medical support."
